Quite an unusual car.

Don't know if I've ever seen a TNT in a '66 sedan before. Very few sedans were equipped with disc brakes too.

Looks like the fender tag is missing.

Agreed, but it is a NYer TOWN sedan though. Someone apparently knew just what they wanted when they ordered this. They wanted the top of the line Chrysler, but didn't want a hardtop. Maybe they had bad experiences with wind noise or water intrusion in a previous hardtop.

I wish there were interior pictures so we can see what other interesting options it has. I see A/C, HD radiator, tinted glass, front bumperettes, power antenna, 2-tone paint, but not the remote adjustable drivers mirror. They also did not spring for the stainless rocker trim, which was standard on other NYers but optional on the Town Sedan.

Wondering whether it could have the remote trunk release, as it seems I see 2 hoses next to the power brake booster. It has also the rear power antenna, and the bumper guards. Well, 1 one only, the right one probably fell off when the bumper was hit.

Of course someone could have added the TNT air cleaner later. With the fender tag missing there is no way to know for sure without a buildsheet or sales documentation. In 1966 all 440s had VIN 5th digit 'J'. They didn't have the HP exhaust manifolds until 1967, just the usual logs. The engine wouldn't have been stamped with "HP" because internally the 1966 TNT was the same as a regular 440, including the cam.
